“Never ever give up. I was given one in a million chance of survival. No one wanted to take me under their care because I was a lost case. Find the doctors [who will] fight like it is their fight too!”
“They were always making sure that we were comfortable and informed about resources and in the know about things that would be beneficial to us as a family.”
“We love that they are so ‘in tune’ with kids. Every time we visit, they are attentive to Madison (and our needs).”
